		Hector is an avid climber, and he'll climb all over me while he's on my shoulder.

		Camacho controlled the fight from the opening bell, counterpunching Mackie with great effectiveness but little cohesion.

		Mackie never threatened Camacho, and Camacho was arrogant throughout the fight and when he was being sent to his corner he would chat with the ringside announcers and wave to the crowd whenever he was sent to a neutral corner.
